Is the car facing uphill? If it is its a good idea for a few people to push the car from behind while another person applying the brakes and taking it out of "park". You might have also accelerated too much into a parking bumper (against your front tires) making it much more difficult to take the car out of park. That's happened to me before and I've learned not to go all the way into a parking space to the point that you hit the bumper and then lock the car in by quickly placing it on park (for example, when you're in a hurry) In that event again try to push the car forward, apply the brakes and then try to get it out of park. You may have blown a fuse. That happened to me in my 98 Ford Escort. It kept blowing because there was a short. There's a short term solution which is to take off a little, very little tab next to the shift lever on that faceplate. Stick a screwdriver or anything that will fit in there and push down. While pushing you will be able to move the lever out of Park.
